Abstract The meteoric growth in light weight structures have opened on doors to many revolutionary concepts and innovations. Studies have manifested that the lowered weight of the structures somehow help to fight the material cost with a better seismic performance. The hollow core structures aimed reducing the structural weight with an improved structural performance as well. The Concrete filled double steel tubes (CFDST) can be taken as amalgamation of Hollow core columns and CFST i.e. single skinned columns. The co-relation of CFST and Hollow core columns gave birth to Concrete filled double skinned tubular columns (CFDST) which can possess the advantages of both the concepts. A sedulous review of concrete filled double skinned columns is being conveyed through this article. The behavior of confined concrete as well as the confining inner and outer steel in the CFDST model and its overall structural behavior is being succinctly reviewed in this article and a simultaneous comparison of CFDST columns to solid concrete/conventional columns is also being carried out where required.

This paper presents the innovative use of hot-rolled thickness-tapered mill products, longitudinally profiled (LP) plates, for the seismic performance of bridge bents of single and portal framed piers. The study involves the inelastic cyclic testing and numerical analysis of tested beam-columns and portal frames in order to evaluate the effects of tapering ratios of LP plates, penetration of yielding, and number of locally buckled panels on their structural ductility. A structural design method is proposed for the portal frames having LP panels under cyclic loadings.

In the applications of supplemental dampers for seismic hazard mitigation, the supporting braces for the dampers are considered an important component for ensuring an efficient energy dissipation in the structure. Despite their importance, studies on the effects of the brace stiffness and the velocity exponent in the case of nonlinear viscous dampers are rather limited. In this paper, a numerical time-stepping method is developed for computing the seismic response of the structure with supporting braces and nonlinear viscous dampers. Using the proposed method, effects of the parameters of the nonlinear damper-brace systems are investigated, using first a single-story structure, followed by multi-story buildings. Results indicated that the design parameters for the dampers and supporting braces may be combined in numerous ways to satisfy a given set of structural performance objectives, but the brace stiffness can be minimized to achieve design efficiency in the range of velocity exponent commonly used for seismic applications of nonlinear viscous dampers. Results also indicated that for a set brace stiffness, if the dampers are optimally designed, the velocity exponent has an insignificant effect on the structural seismic performance objectives considered in this paper.

Performance-Based Plastic Design (PBPD) is a structural analysis that can be used to review structural performance. This method is increasingly popular to be used in the earthquake-prone area. This method is based on energy method that can be applied to steel or concrete structures. Meanwhile, Indonesia has already SNI 1726:2102 to be used as a guide in designing the thrust load to review the level of structural performance. Both of these things need to be used as a reference in areas that were initially considered safe from the earthquake but based on the development of earthquake micro zonation maps, it is very possible to become potential areas that also become earthquake regions. For this reason, the case of the structure that was built in the Pekanbaru area was taken. From the analyses of structural behavior, the structure that applied PBPD has greater displacement than the structures that apply the thrust load of SNI 1726: 2012. The percentage of displacement that occurred was 8-37 %. Based on performance analysis, the structures according to PBPD shows a better level of performance to the application of SNI 1726: 2012 thrust load.

This experimental study presents concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns and demonstrates their expected advantages. These columns consist of an outer steel tube, an inner steel tube, and concrete sandwiched between two tubes. The influence of the outer-to-inner tube dimension ratio, outer tube to thickness ratio, and type of inner tube material (steel, PVC pipe) on the ultimate axial capacity of concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns is studied. It is found that the yield strength of the inner tube does not significantly affect the ultimate axial capacity of concrete-filled double-skin tubular composites. With the replacement of the inner tube of steel with a PVC pipe, on average, less than 10% strength is reduced, irrespective of size and dimensions of the steel tube. Hence, the cost of a project can be reduced by replacing inner steel tubes with a PVC pipes. Finally, the experimental results are compared with the existing design methods presented in AISC 360-16 (2016), GB51367 (2019), and EC4 (2004). It is found from the comparison that GB51367 (2019) gives better results, followed by AISC (2016) and EC4 (2004).
